EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Wasps, 1833-39" takes us back to the 19th century and immerses us in the world of natural history. Created by an anonymous French artist from that era, this print is a true gem from a private collection. The artwork comes from a renowned publication called "A Dictionnaire pittoresque d'histoire naturelle et des phénomènes de la nature" published between 1833 and 1839 by Felix Edouard Guerin-Meneville. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life various creatures such as wasps, snakes, and insects. In this particular scene depicted on the engraving, we are introduced to Myzine sp. , commonly known as wasps or brillenschlange in German. These fascinating insects share space with Naja naja, better known as the Indian cobra or spectacled cobra. The composition showcases their unique features while highlighting their coexistence within the natural world. Engraved with precision on steel plates, this illustration captures our attention with its meticulous lines and delicate shading techniques. It serves not only as an artistic masterpiece but also as a valuable educational resource for those interested in reptiles, animals, insects, and entomology. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform and ePurix Verlag Volker Christen's efforts in preserving historical works like these prints have become accessible for art enthusiasts worldwide.
